Abstract: A bandwidth sharing method and device based on SDN control of terminal cell are disclosed. The bandwidth sharing method includes: determining, by a SDN controller, whether a trigger request for bandwidth sharing is received; upon receipt of the trigger request, selecting at least one second terminal cell for providing bandwidth sharing to the first terminal cell; controlling the first terminal cell and the at least one second terminal cell to jointly process the target service.
